Loschky, Lester
Studies in Second Language Acquisition, v16 n3 p303-23 Sep 1994
Examined the influence of input and interactional modifications on second-language acquisition, assigning 41 learners of Japanese to 1 of 3 experimental groups: (1) unmodified input with no interaction; (2) premodified input with no interaction; and (3) unmodified input with the chance for negotiated input. Results indicated that comprehension was highest for the negotiated interaction group. (Contains 57 references.) (MDM)
